High CVSS 7.5

CVE-2026-24184

NVD analysis in progress

NVIDIA Cumulus Linux contains a vulnerability in the Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) daemon component, where an unauthenticated attacker on an adjacent network could cause buffer overflow by sending crafted LLDP frames. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to code execution.

What this means

Exposure
Exploitable from the adjacent network, without authentication and with no action from the victim. The attack does require particular conditions, which makes it less systematic.
Impact
An attacker can read sensitive data, modify or destroy data and take the service offline.
Weakness
A copy without a size check overwrites memory past the buffer (classic overflow).
Likelihood
Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.

What to doFold into the next patch cycle.
